Description
Our story introduces Sicily in the shadow of Mt. Etna, Europe’s most active volcano. We will explore how volcanoes, earthquakes, and trade shaped Messina, including the devastating 1908 earthquake and the city’s famous astronomical clock. We will also examine the Strait of Messina, legendary home of Scylla and Charybdis, before ending in Taormina, where a Greek-Roman theater still hosts performances beneath the shadow of Etna.
